I applied for port renewal at Festac and picked it up today (strictly DIY). Submitted my documents and captured 1st July. Just walked in today and it was ready as of 28th July.
So Festac people 4 weeks after capturing, just go and check if your port is ready, don't wait for sms.

Ikoyi is sadly not DIY friendly

Yhasf:
Please can someone explain to me why Ikoyi office can't produce port within a month while Alausa and Festac office produce within a month ?

DaSugarBoi:

You won't believe I just got a text from NIS now to proceed to Alausa centre for Capturing.

Does it mean no Abeokuta applicant on this thread?

Ikoyi command is the most fraudulent and biased immigration command in Nigeria after owerri command ..
Pls people should avoid them

You forgot to add Ibadan.

Omo Ikoyi is on a different level,I have told people I know to avoid that place like a plague .
How can capturing for port renewal that as been done since June 10th still be in production,when Alausa and Festac are providing port within 4 weeks.

Kindleade:
Most of you who haven't collected your port or not sure if it is ready yet, it is better to check your name on the list of uncollected ports on the Immigration website.

Likewise Ibadan. Same story.

Omo I'm regretting going to this Ikoyi command.
Captured on June 16th through an agent.
This is already the 7th week, went there today cos the agent actually traveled to the north 4 Sallah so he said I should go and check 4 the port since I'm in urgent need of it and can't wait 4 him to be back.
Went there today and they returned my slip with letter E written on it dat I should call my agent. Like I'm pissed right now. Asked the officer to explain what the E means cos the ones I've seen had AA written on theirs and he's sounding unfriendly dat I should go.

Those that did their port renewal on May, at Ibadan, how far? Have they started releasing such ports? Mine, since may 7, my agent is telling me it's not yet ready. And I need it urgently for visa processing in d next one week. Pls, what can I do?

Richdee1:


Oh! Thanks for checking up! How has it been on your end?
Hope you've been doing well

we thank God Almighty

I still don't get why Alausa will give me October 1st for collection

I submitted as far back as 16th of July, didn't receive message, so I decided to go there yesterday, they have abandoned my file somewhere, I sha captured, now October 1st

Everything in Nigeria is stressful

Please, is there anyone who applied for change of name on port?

How long did it take?

I was told the timeline is not the same with the usual port renewal.

An info will be highly appreciated.

Where and when did you capture? Is it through DIY or agent? I am yet to get mine since 29th April. NIS Headquarters, Abuja

I captured on July 2nd at Abeokuta. DiY

April 29th? That is more than 3 months??¡!!!!!! And you captured at the NIS HQ? Why is it taking so long?

God is my helper!

mohtunrahyor:
@oggg, @yehmy & everyone, please help. My husband applied for port renewal last year at Ikoyi but he received sms that is port & NIN DOB doesn’t match. He paid 15k through Remita for NIN DOB correction but since last year November the corrected DOB is yet to drop on Immigration portal. Please what can be done to make the DOB drop on immigration portal?

N.B He used same NIN slip to open bank in April and the corrected DOB reflected at the bank

Pls has it been rectified? I corrected mine since November the DOB hasn't changed

@oggg

if u are not a woman and changing name due to marriage. The process is longer and harder. Official price is 56k. 30k for charges and after approval 26k
Please do you have a previous ppt or this is your first ppt. If first port just do your port in this name pls
